Chapter 964 Cool scientific experiments (24)

By the end of December, the weather in Jiangcheng has been a bit bad these days, the temperature has dropped sharply, and there is a little snow outside. Of course, the snow in Jiangcheng will not be very big and not thick enough, but it is enough to make the mountains and rivers covered with a layer of silver with white and black.

It's beautiful, but it's not suitable for family travel, especially in Yang Yi's house. They also have a little guy who is just over a year old and is prone to catch a cold. In such a cold weather, it is best to stay in a warm home to play.

Originally, Yang Yi did have plans for this weekend!

Although Murphy still has a week of promotion, her grades are relatively stable, and she has achieved all the results that others can only dream of. She doesn't need to work hard to boost sales, so this weekend, she also rarely has two days off.

Taking advantage of this time when Murphy was at home, Yang Yi originally planned to take Murphy and the children to the northern foot of Tingshan Mountain to see the blooming plum blossoms in the mountains and plains!

Although the wax plums are only artificially planted - the Jiangcheng government supports the surrounding farmers to plant wax plums on the gentle hillsides, but after several years of development, this large area of ​​wax plums has become a famous winter scenery in Jiangcheng. From January to March of the next year, almost every weekend, people drive there to play, and the local farmers are also booming their farmhouse business.

It just so happens that this is not a critical time for planting agricultural products. The development of the tourism industry by farmers also brings new sources of income to their pockets.

But in such snowy weather, the plan to go out to play can only be in vain. Yang Yi calculated the time and changed it to next week, just as Murphy ended her new album promotion work. If the weather is good, he can bring Murphy and The children went to see Lamei.

Of course, this week's activities will be crowded with the next week's activities. Originally, next week Yang Yi arranged for everyone to go to Tianmu Lake in Yanling to soak in the hot springs. Fortunately, the distance between Jiangcheng and Yanling is not too far, especially from Tingshan! Yang Yi can take his family to see the plum blossoms, and then go to the hot spring.

But now the question is, can't go out this weekend, what can I do at home?

Moreover, Yang Yi has to face the disappointed Xixi.

The little girl has been looking forward to her dad taking her out to play this week!

No, when Yang Yi announced the news in the morning, Xixi twisted her buttocks and shouted reluctantly, Baba, but I still want to see the pretty little plum blossoms!

The plan can't keep up with the changes! Look outside, it's snowing. If you go out to play, you'll be cold and bruised. How can you have fun? Yang Yi rubbed Xixi's little head with a smile and said, Let's wait until next week to go out and play!

Xixi looked at the floor-to-ceiling windows of the living room, and there was indeed a little snow outside. However, through the glass window, Xixi could see that the steamed bun, who got out of the dog door at some point, was jumping excitedly on the snow-stained lawn.

This silly bun, as if he had never seen snow before, jumped so high and opened his mouth wide, as if he was about to bite the falling snowflakes, but his movements were very good, and he would not fall to the ground like a silly husky. It can be seen that Baozi is leaping vigorously, rolling in the air, and landing steadily, his posture is very cool!

Baozi was playing so happily in the snow, which made Xixi envious.

I saw the little girl's two little fingers intertwined, with a look of sadness and grievance, and muttered: But, it's not fun at home...

Fortunately, Yang Yi was already prepared.

How can it not be fun? Look, what did Dad prepare? I saw Yang Yi took out a brightly colored book and shook it to Xixi with a smile.

I don't want to read! I want to go out to play... Xixi still muttered, but out of curiosity, the little girl moved back from the floor-to-ceiling window and turned back three steps. The book in Dad's hand, look what's on it.

Cool Science Experiments

Xixi only recognizes the word cool on it.

This is cool. Xixi pointed to the first word and turned to look at her father.

Yang Yi smiled, read the title of the book, and said, It means, a very cool and interesting scientific experiment, this is a book that asks you to play science games.

This book is one of the more interesting children's books that Sahara Press will import from the United States in the near future. When Lu Benjie reported to Yang Yi, Yang Yi took a fancy to it. Although the imported translation has not yet been produced, Yang Yi Still let Lu Benjie get himself an original English version.

Exactly, it came in handy today.

Is it fun? Xixi hesitated, looked up at her father, and asked with a small mouth.

Let's try it! Call my brother too! Yang Yi said with a smile.

...

Although Xixi is still a little reluctant, and still has some obsessions with playing outdoors, her curiosity still makes her let go of her obsession.

After breakfast, the little girl followed her father's ass and watched him prepare experimental equipment in the kitchen.

This is an egg, this is salt, this is a spoon, we also need a transparent glass, the cup for drinking water is a little too small. Yang Yi got the equipment and put it in Xixi's hand. In the small basket, let the little girl also share part of the work, so that she has a more sense of participation.

Xixi's thinking speed can still keep up with her father's speech. Listening to her father's words, she blinked, pointed to the glass bottle that her mother used for flower arrangement, and said, Baba, let's use this!

Because flowers are not easy to survive in winter, the batch of flowers that Murphy inserted before has been disposed of by Yang Yi after withering, and now Murphy has no time to buy new flowers, so this month, the glass bottle used for flower arrangement , is temporarily empty.

Yes, this bottle is not big or small, just enough for us to use, and it is transparent. You and your brother can better observe our experiment. Yang Yi smiled, gave Xixi a thumbs up, and said, You are still amazing, and you helped Dad find the equipment we needed in one fell swoop!

Although it was only a small matter, under her father's exaggerated praise, Xixi felt a sense of satisfaction in her heart. She saw her two little hands carrying a small basket, her little body twisting from side to side, and she laughed giggling. .

The atmosphere of doing the experiment became more and more intense, and Xixi gradually forgot the unpleasantness of not being able to go out to play just now. After her father washed the bottle and filled it with water, she happily followed behind her father and returned to the living room.

You go outside to play in the snow, look, you made your body so dirty, and you stepped on the floor, so many dark footprints! Murphy was reprimanding the buns who came back after going crazy outside.

No wonder Murphy scolds it, this guy is still covered with wet marks from the melting snow, and the floor near the door of the house is also as black as Murphy said, covered with footprints like steamed buns and plum blossoms.

Dogs can perceive human emotions. According to a documentary, dogs are one of the few animals that can see changes in human emotions from human faces.

At this moment, Steamed Bun, although he could not understand the words of the hostess, still knew that he had done something wrong and was being scolded. He was lying on the ground with his head buried between his feet, and he did not dare to look at his master.

It's okay, let's go wash it. Yang Yi looked at the footprints on the floor and felt a little uncomfortable, so he had to put aside the experiment first.

Xixi was in charge of taking care of Xiao Jiao, Murphy took the buns to the bathroom and rinsed it, while Yang Yi was going to use a mop to clean the dark footprints on the floor.

After a tossing, it was almost ten o'clock, and the experiment that Yang Yi took the children to do finally lifted the curtain.

PS: There is indeed the book Cool Science Experiments, but there seems to be no translation
